Comedian Graham Linehan arrested by armed Police over tweets

Outrage as creator of 'Father Ted' and 'The IT Crowd' is arrested over pro-womens rights tweets by British Police









The bully boys of politicised British Police Forces at it again. I joined the Free Speech Union (FSU) last year for precisely this reason because this intimidation is now a weekly occurance. You know, it always amuses me when our politicians talk about threats to our freedom from Russia and elsewhere, but Britain arrests more people per year for speech 'offences' than tyrannical Russia does. Go figure.

You can read Graham's account of the arrest here including the three tweets in question. See what you think.

It just so happens that Nigel Farage MP is testifying before the US Congress today too, on free speech in Britain....
